Food
 

HELLO, I'm Portuguese and I greyhounds competing in Portugal. I wonder what the best food (the best ingredients) for a greyhound's sprinter (200 to run here 250metros)?
From the moment I am giving the dog food from Eukanuba Jogging Performace platium.
Many Thanks

Raw beef or horse meat. Muti-vitamin tablet. Thats it. We have some of the fastest greyhounds in the world and thats what we feed them.

coops

Pasta or rice along with meat?

bread. Whole meal.

For a fast sprinter, that kibble is exactly what you need. Do you also give raw meat with it? I don't know your country's legal requirments for meat but if you think there might be any bacteria/worms risk in the meat, you can simply feed a complete premium dry food without meat. The main thing is to feed an high energy diet.

If your dog looks and races well on the kibble you are feeding, then stick with it, you must be doing something right.

cheers

In my country there is no rule of law. My friends give ground chicken with pasta, but I think that beef is better because it has creatine. So I would like to know the opinion of experts because they say that a greyhound racing sprinter has a Power supply of a greyhound that runs more distance.

You have to use a mixture of chicken with either horse or beef. Mix that with bread or good quality kibble and water. Then add your vitamins
